Enabling IPv6 support on a Sametime® Community Server

If your Sametime® Community Server deployment requires IPv6 support, you can enable it by configuring settings for both Domino® and Sametime®.

Before you begin

Install Domino® and a Sametime® Community Server as described earlier; these products must be installed before you can modify their configuration settings.

Important: Due to the way the Sametime® community server functions, you must not disable IPv4 addressing in the server's operating system. Even if you will use IPv6-only addressing with the Sametime® Community Server and with your network, internal server components use IPv4 addresses (for example, in loopback addresses) and will fail if the operating system does not support IPv4 addressing.
